Kimber Solo 9mm Pistols
.
Small. Powerful. Dependable.
The Solo® CDP (LG) and Solo® DC (top) weigh only 17 ounces. Just over
1 inch wide and with a barrel length of 2.75 inches, they establish a
new benchmark for concealed carry performance.
Solo pistols have a single action striker-fred
trigger with a smooth, consistent pull that
breaks clean at 6.5-7.5 pounds for fast and
accurate shooting.
Steel sights are securely mounted in
machined dovetails. CDP and DC models
have night sights. Other versions have
sights with large white dots.
A manual ambidextrous thumb safety,
checkered slide release and ambidextrous
magazine release button enable intuitive,
fast and safe operation.
Solo
®
pistols combine unequaled Kimber
®
quality and 9mm power in a package
that weighs just 17 ounces. Borrowing proven 1911 ergonomics, they have a
natural pointability that improves both speed and accuracy while making them
surprisingly comfortable to shoot. Solo slides and barrels are machined from
stainless steel, and frames are cut from the finest aluminum. Five models are
offered, including 2 with Crimson Trace Lasergrips. No other micro-compact
pistol can match the performance of a Solo. Not even close. Visit a Kimber
Master Dealer and see for yourself.
